Plat Sajack Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 that line is certainly an eyesore. I can't believe some of you haven't noticed the blue line. It seriously bugs me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Witt3439 Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Right click on the desktop and click on Personalize. Click on Windows Color and Appearance, then click on "Open classic appearance properties for more color options". In the Appearance Settings window, click on Advanced. Hit the dropdown for Border Padding, and you can take it all the way down to zreo, which will give you bare minimum border. After you have it set, hit OK and/or Apply when necessary to close out back to your desktop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brody McKee Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 I noticed it immediately and I can see both sides of this discussion - but I say: why do you even care? Really, is it worth complaining about? Here are some more serious problems: - NVIDIA = crappy Vista drivers, - Creative = crappy drivers for everything, - WPF/.NET3 applications take too long to initialise, - Stupid JAVA causes problems with Aero, - Microsoft's Vista advertising campaign has been so far pretty poor, and the public are confused about it, - The press are making unfairly attacking Vista (mainly because journos use Macs), - Apple couldn't make iTunes work with Vista in the 6+ months they had (or they are doing it on purpose), - The first batch of Vista PC's we recieved from OEMs (HP, Acer, etc) took a half hour each to setup, and some of the Acer machines had bad activation and needed to be activated by customers, OK... So the blue line does match Vista's blue glow behind buttons and etc, which means it does fit-in graphically - but it doesn't really need to be there. If anything, it probably clutters the window frames more than it improves them. But as I said, it's not the most pressing issue with Vista... or the world.

On 0 it's barely noticeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micro Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Small Bug - A small semi transparent "corner" is left on the top and bottom left sides of the window, a faint white glow gives it away.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
